Rheinberger Organ Sonatas
Bruce Stevens Plays

Bruce Stevens plays the beautifully crafted, melodious, and often stirring organ Sonatas of Josef Rheinberger on a series now of four CDs. Three different organs are heard on each CD in the series. The organs are fine examples of American organbuilding from the 19th century, ideally fitting the character of these works. These recordings have received great critical acclaim. The works are especially interesting in their historical context: Rheinberger was a primary influence on dozens of American musicians who studied with him in Munich.
